Metallurgy Engineering

Program offered: Bachelor in Metallurgy Engineering
(4 years full time course)

Total Intake: 60

A relatively novel
undergraduate program in Metallurgy Engineering at Government
Engineering College, Sector - 28, Gandhinagar has been designed
to train engineering graduates who would be effective in meeting the
emerging trends in our country in advanced materials as well as in
Metallurgical Engineering.

The Department is offering
an eight semester Bachelor degree program since the academic year 2008-09.
The faculty team is a fine blend of young, dynamic and experienced
individuals who impart knowledge in the areas of Physical Metallurgy,
Mineral Processing, Foundry Technology, Iron & Steel Manufacturing,
Metal Forming and Metal Joining, Powder Metallurgy, Non-destructive
Testing and other Characterization Techniques. Students are given an
exposure to the advanced areas like Nanotechnology, Smart Materials, Alloy
Design, Failure Analysis & Selection of Materials and latest
Characterization Techniques as a part of their curriculum or their
projects.

An in-depth study of the
area of special interest of the student is undertaken through departmental
elective courses and project work. Their overall study at college is
supplemented by industrial training during summer preceding the fourth
year of the program, educational tours and expert talks.

Project work, both
practical and computer based, in the fourth year of the program, enables
the students to carry out independent research utilizing various skills
learnt during the program.

Vision:

To provide a modern
Metallurgical Engineering Program of the highest quality so that quality
students can be placed in reputed industries and research organizations.

To deliver information
about current trends in the field of Metallurgy & Materials
engineering to the students.

To encourage students to
work on innovative projects related to Metallurgy engineering for managing
defect free, economical, energy efficient products, processes or devices to
best serve the nation to fulfil the socioeconomic,
techno-commercial & environmental needs.

Labs

Department is equipped with state-of-the art machines as per university guidelines. Students can get their hands on these lab equipments and improve their skills & practical knowledge rather than only theoretical.
